The calculator was not worth a decade wait, but it is amazing to have.

Back in the day Microsoft Encarta had an integrated Math feature (Equation-graphing) even more

Tydlig used to do most of this 10 years earlier on the ipad too. It would be a great if you made a comparison video to see how much of these new features are really ai driven innovation

On the topic of Apple's new Math Notes: the only use case that would compel me to use this is if it can auto translate LaTeX.

Microsoft Math Solver for the iPad: *exists for years* Apple: *announces Math Notes* Marques: I have never seen anything like this before Microsoft Math Solver for the iPad: Am I a joke to you?

I remembered using the T-something calculator in the 90’s that cost $100+ and 20 years later an iPad has that capability for $1000 plus. Wow, just wow!

It’s dope for budgeting. I write my budgets and plan trips in notes then hop over google sheets.

There was old research that hand writing is beneficial way to take notes comparing to typing b/c character by character would have a function call to the brain by connecting memory of words, so would work like confirmation of the notes into the brain.

Well thanks , Marquez. Siri says "I'm sorry, I can't do that". "Who is speaking? Who is speaking please"

Just found out the new calculator app can do a LOT of conversions, like any conversion you may need. It's crazy how functional the calculator app is now.

Even tho I'm an Android user, i watched WWDC and really loved the Math notes app on the calculator.

you don't actually need MagSafe for the standby mode on the iPhone, it still comes up if you have the phone charging and on its side, even if it's just with the regular iPhone charging cable, so they shouldn't need that on the iPad either!

I'm totally using math notes for my second college physics course later this year

11:20 as an iPad Air + kneeboard case user, please make them thicker. All those internal pressure point ripples on the display can get a little distracting

Bro just lit everyone's phones with the Siri command 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The people who are asking, what is the use of M4 chip in the iPad Pro, here is the answer “ calculator“app

DAVID!!! 'g' doesn't change its always 9.81 m/s²!!! (Unless you're solving extraterrestrial equations 😅)

The blackberry smart pad from the early 2000’s could do something similar.

6:15 absolutely did not deserve the ten year wait. What a joke.

5:17 exactly

David you're not alone in the handwriting thing, I do inventory for a living and often our customers have to give us a list of item numbers in quantities to enter, and I've become really good at being able to decipher between numbers that people often get lazy about writing. such as the 4 verses 9 thing, 2 vs Z, S vs 5,... sometimes 7 looks like a 1 if they don't take long enough on the top of the number or a 2 if they let the pen drag on the way to the next character. usually it's because they're trying to do it quickly, but there's a big difference between a 1 and a 7... especially if the item is expensive, where in pharmacy if you're talking about dosages, that difference could be the difference between somebody living or dying... fortunately the medical industry has gotten away from handwritten scripts, right?

Not gonna lie, I am also quite excited for the upgrades the macOS calculator’s getting. Found the interface quite lacking compared to Windows so very happy to see they’re improving it.

Can you write a second order polynomial and have it apply the quadratic equation for the roots?

I don't even use the calculator on my iPhone. I always use spotlight instead. So I never actually missed it, but math notes. That's really cool.

I used spotlight as the calculator on iPad ...

There are already notes apps that will do hand written math but they are pretty bad at discerning operations. Hopefully Apple's is better at that

11:45 yeah

Good stuff, Can the calculator do iterations? Thank You.

OneNote has been amazing for me in all of my University Math courses. Math writing recognition has been around for over a decade, and only recently has it been applied to calculators. Oh, and OneNote has a Math Solver, but it's pretty limited.

So Math Notes, wasn't that an episode of Big Bang Theory? Anyone else?

hope it will be available in Europe with the Apple Intelligence restrictions in EU…

As a mechanical engineer,Math Notes is an interesting feature for iPad OS.The question that has not been asked or answered if I am not mistaken,is will the mathematical capability increase with further updates.Will Math Notes be able to do differential calculus,advanced algebra along with advanced physics at an undergraduate university level.The other obvious question is will high schools and universities allow the use of iPad's during tests,mid-terms and final exams.I do not think math notes will replace the need for an advanced graphic calculator for students in STEM fields.

Impressive stuff

Can we get this tech in a DnD app please? The vibe of pen and paper with the convenience of auto calculations for my dumbass would be amazing.

I would re-learn maths just to use the new calculator app

my iPad M1 pro 11 inch 256Gb storage feel slow and didn't load youtube completely on iPad OS Beta, I hope they will fix it and not because the 8GB RAM, the calculator thing I use webpage search bar 😂

Guys, the iPad already has a calculator through spotlight

Marques triggered my Siri with his last comment ! 😮

love how Andrew will grudgingly admit anything really cool Apple does and try his best to defend something like Recall to the best of his ability. the bias is so transparent.

I’m taking credit for this. Of course, Apple would put a calculator in iPadOS right after I broke down and bought PCalc.

I never used Calculator on iPhone or Mac. I always used Numbers or Excel for calculating. You can calculate formulas, algebra, do functions and everything on excel or Numbers. I don’t get why people don’t use that.

Looking for math challenges „How a VERY complicated task, using an Apple calculator, you solve?”

I give a very large face palm to those that don’t realize the very first Mac in 1984 came with a calculator and a graphic calculator for decades! The idea of promoting “touch first” which is the intent of the iPad should be obvious. In my opinion, if they had placed the same idea of calculator into the iPad (of which anyone could have compiled and installed from example code from Apple if they so desired), it would have lessened or even removed the impetus behind the pursuit to introduce what they finally did.

Not sure why people go crazy for anything apple release. It is just a calculator app. I think this app can make use of the m4 chip 😂😊

Texas Instruments graphing calculaters in the 90s had equation solver, and that had a very weak processor. So, Apple recreated old graphing calculators and that is what they needed to figure out to release an app? The excuse given still doesn't hold up as a real reason for it to take so long for a calculator app. The truth is that they didn't see a need for one.

Will this be needing internet connection or offline?

My Siri is a traitor😐

1:35 the sarcastic clapping

Really? 😂😂 Bro just had a huge discovery that wireless charging can't work through metal

10:33 lollllll

FYI - ONE NOTE APP DO THIS ALREADY 😂

Me: 3^2 + 4^2 = x^2 x = ___ iPad: Yes I can solve this. x = 3 .... OK, iPad. I don't know where the interpretation went wrong, but not a good sign! It's too bad I can't upload a pic.

There was app on Math app App Store and Apple brought whole company and put simple features to iPad Pro iOS 18 Wow 👏🏻

After years 😭😂

There was rumors of MagSafe for the new iPad but never happened

They couldn’t have had a calculator with the first iPad and the added this feature later? Why did they actually not add a calculator until now? I think they thought it looked/felt bad on the big screen, which means they just went against their own judgment since it’s just the iPhone calculator blown up. Apple folded.

Sick Hook, Mr. Crook, Eye Candy for children

isnt this what the guys from the big bang theory tried to make? the LenWolaPalli equation solver.

At this point it’s just clickbait and a trend to hate on the iPad and iPadOS. It’s actually really capable in the right hands.

Gone are the days where people can argue over basic order of operations posts online. The crazy thing is that even if the Math Notes gets the answer wrong... people are going to regard that answer like it is the bible. They will not even entertain the possibility that it could be flawed software.

By the way, one mathematician on KZfaq did do calculus in math notes.

When I think of how complex the first computers were, it’s ironic that my generation needs help with pointing and tapping.

every person on the planet who needs a calculator has one, it was worth making something genuinely special. When apple do these things it pushes the other companies to follow suit pushing the whole industry forward. I am confused why being able to customise you Home Screen is seen as so negative considering other devices can already do this... so why is it a negative when apple do it ?? strange

RE: the missing calculator for the last 10 years. I doubt there are many people who have an iPad but not an iPhone. Anytime I've needed a calculator, I've reached for my phone. With this new calculator, I'll still reach for my phone unless I'm trying to solve a more complex problem. Long way to say, I've felt impacted by not having a simple calculator on the iPad.

Didn't Microsoft One note have this feature way before?

You know it's bad when the feature people are looking forward to the most on the new iPadOS update is a freaking calculator app!

PCalc has been available forever on iPhone and iPad. It is the reason Apple hasn’t done a calculator.

But is there a history function?

As sick as my Ti?

Honestly how many people are gonna use that?

Ok

Me: *gets a girlfriend* Marques: “So, I’ve been trying out your girlfriend for the last three months. And let’s just say… I have some thoughts.”

4:31 9.80665 meters per second , get it right people 😉😉

Does Math Notes recognize mathematical constants like Pi and Lambda? If so how many?

Steve Jobs had a strange directive to not put a calculator on the iPad. They have been honoring that, who knows why.

There’s NO excuse to not have a calculator on any computer! Apple has forced all of their customers to put up with stupid ads just to do basic calculation on an iPad. That’s a crime to humanity. Saying they needed to amp it up is just a stupid excuse. They now have AI, and found a cool feature they wanted on the iPad, and someone said “Hey guys, I think we forgot that we don’t actually have a calculator to put these features on the iPad.” Steve jobs got tired of rolling around in his grave for the stupid decisions Apple has been making…

Never seen the new iPad stuff, but how is this all that different from Microsoft Math, which has been out for a long time?

You know what Apple needs to come up with.. a dedicated budgeting/finance app that works over all apple products. Customise to be as basic or complicated as you want. Ability to collaborate with others in your family. Heck, throw AI features in there. There are other apps, but they’re not great, only work with 1-2 devices, only work with android, look garbage/clunky etc etc APPLE PLEASE MAKE ONE. Notes is too basic and time consuming.

8:08 hahaahah

✂️ audio clipping

damn bruh doesnt understand wireless charging in a tech show reeeeeee

They said A14 and older so A12 ipad pros not getting the calculator app wtf

Everything happened in the tech world and here we are talking about a calculator app sad day for content creators

2:18 good craig impression

I used myscript before this

Not if you have calculus based physics. It won’t work

why do you need a calculator to draw and questions to get an answer, instead of typing it out simply to chatgpt

Does the new ipad (basic) get this math notes update?

There have been apps that do this for years let's not pretend Apple waited "to make something great". They waited till they could acquire a company that makes a good one and integrate it into iOS while replicating the best parts of everyone else's apps. Fair enough that still results in a good app but it's not apple innovation, it's keeping something to say for a keynote in the future

there was an ipad app i used over 10 years ago on my ipad 3 that did basic math equations through handwriting which it transformed to written text.. so it’s not really a new thing

Why doesn’t it do calculus?

Too bad the coolest thing about the new iPad is the calculator app…

Oh stop already! There were some ten or more iPad calculator apps available from the very beginning -- some were even free. Who cares if Apple delivered a calculator app? I'm glad they did end up delivering something new and totally different. But don't blame them for not having delivered a basic calaculator for years...!

S=Ut+1/2at^2

Waiting for snapdragon x elite laptops review. Or is it not that big of a tech news if Apple is not involved 😀

Have a look at the one note math function😂

Honestly, it's so bad that this is a topic to talk about in 2024. And is it just me or did anyone else try something like this on their android phones some 12 years ago. I can't recall the name of the calculator app, but it had same feature. Not as smooth obviously cause of the time and hardware then, but it did exactly the same thing and it was on an android phone, not tablet. So let's all just take a chill pill and stop unnecessarily hyping Apple. This is why they feel they can charge anything.

Yeah but the calculator app has annoying ads. And a fee to get rid of the ads, no thanks.

My script calculator is basically this, just from 2013

Let me preface this by saying that I had backed Apple's delay of the calculator all these years based on the justification math in gen AI just simply was not yet possible until now. But The calculator will damage students' learning. Not only does it not show them how it arrived at that answer, but it is literally worse than Wolfram, less capable than Wolfram, it just visually has a neat gimmick with the handwriting. But it literally cannot perform any calculation beyond elementary math that any decently intelligent student already can do. Useless. Utterly useless
